SOME artists suffer for their art – but Jade Davies looks like she has been inflicting it on others.

The 21-year-old graphics art student has created one of the most striking images of this year’s degree show at Winchester School of Art.

The face looks like it has been stabbed with dozens of pins, to study human emotions.

Jade said: “I can understand people being curious but I don’t want to say too much about how I did it. No humans were harmed in the making of it.”

Hundreds of pieces of art work will be on display at the school’s annual degree show, which is open to the public from Thursday until June 23.

The event, at the Park Avenue Campus in Winchester, will showcase student work from fine art; fashion and textiles; and graphic arts. Fine art work will also be on display at the former Wintex laundry in Hyde Abbey Road.

In addition, fresh from success at their London Show last week, fashion students are presenting over 50 collections at the Great Hall in Winchester today.
